Farina, Geoff: fff (2LP-pordenone plaster white vinyl) LP

Geoff Farina's Southern Records tenure was not just about Karate. His late-1990s guitar-and-vocal solo output included the bedroom-recorded "Usonian Dream Sequence" that echoed The Secret Stars' intimate lo-fi sentiments, "Reverse Eclipse" that rode the more delicate fringes of "Unsolved"-era Karate, and the single "Steely Dan", a paean to a contemporaneous guilty pleasure. "FFF" collects all three long out-of-print releases here on vinyl for the first time, fastidiously packaged and punctuated with Farina's written reflections on their making.
